PHOENIX, May 14 (UPI) -- The Arizona Diamondbacks rode Stephen Drew's three-run homer to an 8-4 win over the Colorado Rockies Tuesday.

The D'Backs, who had lost three in a row and six of nine, also got two RBI from Orlando Hudson. Conor Jackson, Mark Reynolds and Chris Burke also drove in runs in the win.

Randy Johnson (3-1) surrendered four runs on nine hits in five innings but got the win thanks to an Arizona bullpen that allowed only three hits over the next four innings.

Garrett Atkins homered for the Rockies, who have dropped three in a row. Jeff Baker had two RBIs and Jonathan Herrera accounted for the Rockies' other RBI.

Jeff Francis (0-4) was the loser, giving up eight runs on 13 hits in just 4 2/3 inning.
